obtain all GAIRMETs collected between these start and end times
in ISO 8601 date/time format with UTC offset:
YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss+hhmm

OR

YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss-hhmm

NOTE:
Due to differences in character encodings by various web
browsers, the + might get encoded to a whitespace.
To avoid this from occurring, use %2B in place of the +.
Please see
W3C date/time formats.

only one GAIRMET is returned, the most recent of all the GAIRMETs in the database from 5 hours ago.

NOTE: The mostRecent constraint is applied after all other constraints have been applied to yield only one GAIRMET.
This single GAIRMET corresponds to the most recent in the result set defined by the other constraints. Only one GAIRMET is returned.

obtain GAIRMETs collected within the last 3 hours for a rectangular region
(bounding box) defined by the min and max lon and lat. If any portion of an GAIRMET region coincides with this rectangular region, then that GAIRMET is returned.

NOTE:

The LonLatRect constraint for GAIRMETS returns a result when the rectangle defined by the lat/lon points intersects with an GAIRMET area.

The LonLatRect constraint can accomodate situations where the bounding box crosses the
International Date Line

The LonLatRect constraint does not support bounding boxes that cross the poles.
